Your only Since when did console browser imply no javascript support? Back when I still used console browsers, edbrowse had fairly good javascript support.
It seems I wasn't clear enough. I actually had in mind console browsers that supported JavaScript, which is why I mentioned the DOM and other Web APIs in the comment you quoted.
As far as I know, console browsers that support JavaScript don't implement all or even a good subset of those APIs. So they can, for example, run JavaScript to validate a form submission, but not to implement widgets in a user interface, for example.
I'm relatively confident that Amazon calls for more extensive API support than the JavaScript-capable console browsers offer.
